Random things...
This morning, I went to church for the first time in 5 1/2 years as someone without a single responsibility in the church. June 30 marked my last day as chair (and member) of SPRC (Staff-Parish Relations Committee -- also called PPRC, or Pastor-Parish Relations Committee, in many Methodist churches). And it felt GREAT! I am now officially A Lump in a Pew.
My cell phone is dying. I've had a Sanyo SCP 6200 phone from Sprint for over two years and I've loved it. It's tall, but incredibly thin, making it great to fit into pockets. But about a month ago, the display started to go out. Randomly, it will now either turn a bunch of extra pixels on or a bunch off. Or vertically shift part of the display. Or every other column. Every day, it is harder to read the display. So it's time for a new phone -- but Sprint doesn't really have anything I want. There are some phones coming out in the next couple of months that look very cool, but I'm not sure that this phone will be usable for that long.
Work has been nuts the last couple of weeks. All in all, though, it was a good couple of weeks. My team got a LOT done -- it was definitely one of the better months for the A/V team.
Today, the child we thought we were going to get to adopt turns one month old. It's still sad for us.
Meredith is gone all this week. She, with four other adults from Half Moon Bay, is leading a group of 20 teenagers down to So. Cal for a week-long service project through Sierra Service Project. She left this morning at 6 AM, and gets back on Saturday.
I left my coffee mug in a meeting in Building 1 on Thursday. By the time I realized I had left it, an hour later, it was already gone. I've had that mug since my days at Apple. It was great. So today I bought the exact same model again.
